The Aurora Australis (The "Southern Lights") as seen from Hope Beach, South Arm, Tasmania. This is a panorama of 7 frames pre-processed in Aperture and stitched together in Hugin. It was too wide, so it's been cropped here. (You might argue that it's still too wide!) Each frame is a 13s exposure from my Canon 600D through a 50mm 1.8 lens. (I still need to get that fast wide angle lens…) http://flic.kr/p/efJzRu

Strange monoliths ok..microliths rise up on the boundary walls of the mausoleum of Ghias-ud-din Tughlaq. I have no idea as to whether the triangular stones atop the 3 horizontal ones making small minarets all around the wall have some cultural significance or are merely attempts at aesthetic presentation. This wall is for a circular part of the mausoleum which has 2 uncovered holes in the middle and one must tread wearily in this area. This would be roughly the area from where the photos below /appearing in the comment was shot. I will not repeat the strange tale of Ghias ud Din as I have already narrated that in the previous post. Though let me mention that the current day usage of the expression "Dilli dur ast" ( Delhi is not close by , it is far away ) is linked intimately to events in the life and death of Ghias-ud-din Tughlaq. You may use it in your daily speech without a whiff of an idea that behind that aphorism lies the tragic tale of an Emperor of Delhi who died in a convenient accident in Kara in Uttar Pradesh on the river Ganges. Ghias-ud-Din was hurrying back to Delhi from fresh conquests in the Bengal area and it was here near Allahabad that a reception was organised by his son to welcome him. A shamiana (tent) was made to fall on the Emperor and in the end he never did make it to Delhi. Dilli dur ast. P.S It is rare to get skies like this in Delhi but it does happen sometimes. I just came back from Dehradun and the skies there are legendary, reminded me of Kerala. So this is a cliche sky shot for now.
